Heading for the transmission and gear shift mechanism. I got way too much slop in the lever. Going to paint the wheel, changed out the fuel quick disconnects, and give it a real good looking over.

And this:

I am hoping this from the present shifting issues.

As of 6/11/2012:
Found the grub screw very loose on the shifter arm so tightened it up with loctite and reverse the process. I am also in the process of packing to move and must have packed or lost the rear wheel spacer. For the life of me I have no idea where it went. I suspect it maybe in the dumpster. But thanks to Mr. Duck I will have another today or tomorrow. I also changed out the plastic fuel QD's, repositioned the Motolight relay and fuse, re-secured the Audiovox cruise vacuum unit in the tail storage, checked my air filter, and routed some wiring. All in all a busy few days.

I got my speedo calibrated yesterday, it was reading 45 mph though I was going only 38. The spread got bigger the faster I went... :laugh

Thanks for the write-up frankeduck.

I found out that I really want a GPS for the old girl, and cruise control, and... :yes

New O2 sensor today. Mileage has been dropping and it rattles a bit even on premium. Over 70k on the bike, and it is black and sooty. Not sure it was bad and won't for a few tanks, but I do know the exhaust smells a lot different now.

Opus · « **Reply #432 on:** June 21, 2012, 07:40:17 PM »

Okay 88 K100LT Project Part 1 complete.

Got the Motorola Droid Car mount installed and tested. It works great...

I installed Grip Buddies on the Fire truck today. Not quite as thick as Grip Puppies which are made of foam material. Buddies are neoprene.
Put the Burd on the tender.

The '95 got some new Kuyakyn offset hwy foot pegs installed today. Have some new rubber for it as well, now just waiting for some NoMar parts and valve stems so I can make the change.

Saturday I built a Rod Kilduff Rear Main Seal Tool to punch my rear seal on. Worked like a charm. I'll post a PDF with the instructions and some pics so you can make your own, Rod Approved tool.

@ Mystic Red
Hi,
Sorry for the delay in replying. Been in busy this week. :dunno

After a test ride on a very bumpy road found that the cradle that mounts to the arm does not hold position very well. If riding on a smooth road it works great.
I'm working out the kinks and will post a full report with photos & parts list when I have it down pat. :confused:

branandfox · « **Reply #441 on:** June 26, 2012, 02:37:27 PM »

Today was the day I installed my new Upgraded injectors! heres the before and afters.

Replaced injectors with a 4 Hole spray Injector for better flow
Also replaced all the fuel lines while I was down there.

The injectors sound a little different to, you can actually here them running if you pay attention to them.
More Humming for the brick!

** Ran a good 5-10 Miles on them. Definetly alittle more throttle response and torque! No more Stuttering as you decrease RPM's either. A Lot more reponse for the buck I'd say. Original OEM Injectors never serviced and bike is at 33K Miles now.**

Starting to feel like new again!

mystic red · « **Reply #442 on:** June 26, 2012, 08:50:47 PM »

Those injectors you took out look kinda nasty. :eek:

yeah, she was a barn sitter in upstate NY for quite some odd years. She's slowly getting her wings back :P

Oil change...

and a quick trip to Mt St Helens.

frankenduck · « **Reply #445 on:** June 27, 2012, 09:34:29 PM »

Oly, eh?

Is Windy Ridge open yet?

Have you seen this: MotoDungee 2012

TimTyler · « **Reply #446 on:** June 27, 2012, 09:58:19 PM »

I went as far as the Johnston Ridge Observatory (actually the less-crowded view point just short of the JR Observatory) and then headed home from there. There were lots of bikes on the roads there today, but I didn't see any old K-bikes. Perfect riding weather.

I'll mark my calendar for MotoDungee and see what happens with my work schedule. Always open to last-minute rides in WA too, but it's hard for me to plan much in advance.

Scott_ · « **Reply #447 on:** June 27, 2012, 11:22:22 PM »

Well, tonight I mounted up some new rubber on the '95. PR2 on the front and Avon Azero on the rear.
Broke in my "new to me" No-Mar tire changer, worked just fine. Something I should have done a couple of years ago....

Here ya go.

This is the one I got. Yes it's manual, but it works ok for me, better than just irons/spoons.
Found a used one on C.L. in Florida for $200
